Annual Laura Evans Memorial Breast Cancer Symposium
The Symposium is titled "The Role of Inflammation & Immunity in Breast Cancer Etiology & Treatment” and brings 16 researchers from across the globe as well as 6 Medical Advisory Committee Members to Sun Valley, Idaho, for the week of February 11-15, 2013. This Symposium is an invitation‐only conference held under the guidance of Marc Lippman, MD, and Angela DeMichele, MD, MSCE. The attendees—which include renowned scientists, researchers and physicians from around the world—have intense working sessions to share unpublished information, analyze breakthroughs, discuss advances in treatment, and recognize hurdles to finding a cure.
"We are so excited to present all of our trademark events along with our Annual Symposium,” said Katie Powell, Executive Director. "We are calling the effort ‘Keep Abreast with EI Week’ as we welcome world-renowned researchers to the valley with our Annual Laura Evans Memorial Breast Cancer Symposium, sponsor our Free Breast Cancer Research Open Forum for the public and finally host the Twilight Snowshoe to wrap up the week.”
"The Symposium is the epitome of our mission at work,” said Executive Director Katie Powell. "Expedition Inspiration strives to find breast cancer cures in our lifetime, and each Symposium is a step in that direction. We are thrilled to welcome these exemplary breast cancer research figures to our home.”
"The Expedition Inspiration Annual Symposium is truly a meeting of the greatest minds in breast cancer research — the 'rock stars' of the field. It is a powerful event because of its singular focus on sharing ideas to move the field forward. There is nothing quite like it, and it exists because of Expedition Inspiration's mission and supporters." — Expedition Inspiration board member Kimberly Allison, M.D.
